Some people brag about how much they spend; I brag about how much I save. While I am a firm believer in nice staples ie purses, belts, sunglasses (if you can afford them) I am also a firm believer on saving on trend driven pieces, like a skater dress. And this weekend I found a skater dress for $12.80 that I bought in both grey and black and will wear All. Summer. Long. The grey is casual, which the black can be dressed up for night with accessories, a belt and heels or dressed down for day with minimal jewelry and a flat sandal. While I’m not going to say the dress is going to last my whole life, the fabric doesn’t feel or look cheap. In my book, that’s a win.
